Oil in intake piping (vortech)
I checked my vortech intake piping and noticed that the inside was coated with oil. Is this normal and where is the oil coming from? I've read that it could be a broken seal in the SC? I've also noticed that my car has been bogging down when i go WOT above 3k RPM. Could this oil be causing my car to bog down? Thanks for any help.

if you got oil in the IC pipes . I would think it almost has to be coming from the SC . I had it happen to me also . I found it when I was playing around with my BOV . I just happen to put my finger in the pipe when the BOV was off . You'll more than likely have it in your plenum also .. You'll need to clean both out .

As far as miles on the blower...Mine had very few miles on it when the seal in the blower went bad
